Vanderburgh deputy resigns, was under investigation

A Vanderburgh County Sheriff’s deputy who was being investigated by the office resigned this week, Vanderburgh County Sheriff Eric Williams said.

Stuart Mosby’s resignation became effective Monday, according to Williams. Mosby was on administrative leave while the sheriff’s office investigated Mosby’s part in the submission of documentation for a traffic grant. Williams said that investigation, which arose after an internal audit, is ongoing.

Williams said the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute, which issued the grant that is being audited, was notified of the current investigation.

A phone listing for Mosby reached by the Courier & Press Thursday morning was apparently incorrect, the person who answered the phone said.
